Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.

Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.

In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.

This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

This cleanser smells nice and does its job. The only downside is the price tag.

Pricey, but great for oily skin, and I don't think it's stripping at all (although, dry skin people may disagree). It provides a very deep cleansing, but your face won't feel super dry right after as it happens with other cleansers for oily skin that contain harsh ingredients like mint. Plus, it smells very refreshing, like freshly cut grass. It shocks me that despite the brand's philosophy, they don't offer any option for refilling the bottle, which is made of glass, and really makes you think of it as a refillable product. But sadly it's not and if you want to repurchase, you really need to go buy another really heavy glass bottle and throw away the old one. I don't know if it's some sort of greenwashing but it's definetly not practical.

Best face wash! Husband and I both love it
This is the best for washing your face! A little goes a very long ways. It really foams up as it says and leaves your face so soft and clean. Both my husband and I use it and neither of us have adored a face wash like we do this one. We’ve used it for several months one of the large bottles and just now running out. He uses it once a day and I use it twice a day. And it lathers up so well still without a huge whopping amount. Will never use a different face wash. I’ve tried so many without satisfaction or being impressed or feeling fully clean but this is awesome and leaves your face so clean. I love how much it foams up
